## Description

Michael Sheppard is a Baltimore-based pianist, composer, conductor, writer, and actor whose work explores connections across musical and performing disciplines. Piano is his primary instrument and longtime livelihood, while conducting, audiobook narration, and acting are newer areas of practice. He also writes and composes, bringing a composer’s perspective to his performances: identifying what makes each work distinctive and helping audiences enter its expressive world.

Sheppard’s musical activities include solo and chamber recitals, concerto performances, masterclasses, and collaborations with instrumentalists such as violinist Jessica Tong, flutist Jennifer Grim, and cellist Dariusz Skoraczewski. His listed programs feature works by composers including Schubert, Poulenc, Nadia Boulanger, Strauss, and Rachmaninoff. He has appeared with orchestras and at music series, universities, and other concert venues in the United States and abroad.

The website presents his schedule, creative roles, photography, and contact information. Sheppard describes his tastes as eclectic and values the exchange of ideas between disciplines, treating music, narration, acting, writing, and composition as distinct practices that can enrich one another.
